Filming Occupy Rooftops music video. Get involved!

This Earth Day, you could go for a hike, or participate in a recycling event…. OR you could do something out of the ordinary and totally awesome: film a music video about solar power with a fun group of people! We need your help, your rhymes, your costumes and props, your arms flailing in our new music video for Occupy Rooftops, a theme about crowdsourced funding for community solar energy. Read about it here. The new video will feature rhymes by Sustainable John (see video at bottom) and a community chorus (that’s where you all get involved). Guest rhymes are welcome if you want to contribute some to the project. We’re gonna be climbing up ladders, getting on rooftops (they’re flat and safe), dancing, jamming, and posing with solar panels (you know you want to). We need at least 10-15 volunteers for our video. Will you help? Please sign up in this Google doc!
